Stress = Mean Celiac + Depression + God Knows What

I've really had some rough days lately. The post I wrote last night, about feeling very, very sick, isnt any better. I still feel just as crappy if not worse.

And then today I came to school to find out teacher sick (meaning i've been here 7 hours before our first class even started, and i still got an hour and a half of school left)..

Then before class started I went on hi5.com and found the girlfriend or whatever of my uncle that passed away, (the one in my avatar, the one mentioned in the bottom of my signature). And we talked for a little bit online, and then I went browing around her profile and without realizing it would be there, I found some picture of him on there. Not that is a bad thing, but I mean i wanted to shed a few tears, and I couldn't people there was others around. And I honestly havent looks at photos of him in a while, so it made it hard.. :(

So that added to some other personal issues that I cant mention right now that sent me into hurt/depression.

And then before I finally did start class I tried calling the guy whos been my closest friend to me in a long time, but who has vanished for the last month and a half, and hes been the only person I can really talk to about this kind of stuff because hes the only one who'll really listen...and there was no answer.

*cries*

Twice today I've had to take Ventolin, because I felt like I was going to start having an asthma attack..

I just want to go home, NOT study for my test tomorrow, and try to beg someone to hug me!!!

I'm sorry for this post. its boring, pointless..

{{{{{hugs}}}}} I'm sorry that had to be a cyber hug. Grief is a hard thing...there's no time table to getting over it, so don't be so hard on yourself, cry as much as you want. It also makes everything else we have to deal with that much harder to deal with! I'm sorry you're feeling so bad, I hope you'll feel better soon.

I too wish I could give you a hug... I hope you can take some time for yourself and just rest and try to get feeling better. Grieving on top of not feeling good is not fun, I know... anyway {{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

I am sorry you are hurting. I hope for brighter days for you in the future.

Thank you guys for your hugs. Means a lot that someone out there cares..

Still in the most of my mind is the thought of why can't my uncle still be alive, and why he cant he just hop over here and help me out in all possible ways.... :(

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
